"Jermain's achievements as a player speak for themselves, but what stood out to us during the process was how he sees the game, how he drives standards, and his approach to leadership and player development."
"We have a clear plan for where we want to go as a club, and we believe Jermain is the right person to build on the strong foundations already in place and help take us forward in the next phase of that journey."
Woking has appointed Jermain Defoe as their new head coach, marking his first permanent managerial position. Defoe, a former Tottenham and England striker, previously served in an interim role at Rangers and worked in the Spurs academy.

Woking believes Defoe's values and leadership style align with their long-term vision, and he will be assisted by Paul Bracewell.
